All staff:
Please be aware there continue to be email scams targeting our staff. There are many warning signs to look for in identifying an email scam, including:
- Sender's email address that is close to our district email (or just use the name of the individual they are impersonating), but not correct. Please look carefully at the sender's email address. Check with the individual (via phone or face to face, if in question).
- The grammar in the emails is often not proper English or commonly used phrases.
- NEVER send money or offer to pay for something for someone, when initiated through email like the one below.
Please pass this information along to your coworkers.
